$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / Again she fled, but swift he came. \ | Tin'uviel! Tin'uviel! He called her | | by her elvish name; And there she | | halted listening. One moment stood she, | | and a spell His voice laid on her: | | Beren came And doom fell on Tin'uviel | | That in his arms lay glistening. | | | | As Beren looked into her eyes Within | | the shadows of her hair, The trembling | | starlight of the skies He saw there | | mirrored shimmering. Tin'uviel the | | elven-fair, Immortal maiden elven-wise, | | About him cast her shadowy hair And | | arms like silver glimmering. | | | | Long was the way that fate them bore, | | O'er stony mountains cold and grey, | | Through halls of iron and darkling | | door, And woods of nightshade | | morrowless. The Sundering Seas between | | them lay, And yet at last they met once | | more, And long ago they passed away In | | the forest singing sorrowless. | | | \ -- J. R. R.
